Hands-On CAD Basics: Learning How to Draft in ACAD for Landscape

Time: 8:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m.

Are you just getting into CAD design, or need a refresher? This interactive lab will provide you with the fundamentals of CAD. We’ll go over the essentials plus give you a run-down of blocks and how to use them in your designs. Once you’ve completed the course, you’ll be able to attach images and other files to your drawings as external references (Xrefs) and set up your irrigation plan properly. Laptops will be provided.

Hands-On Irrigation Design Within CAD for Landscape

Time: 1:00 p.m.-5:00 p.m.

If you’ve already attended our CAD Basics training class or already have some CAD familiarity, pick up some more hands-on experience in this higher-level lab. You’ll exit this course with a thorough understanding of Tools for placing and designing within AutoCAD. Advanced Irrigation design in CAD such as Piping, hydraulics, and revisions will also be covered. Laptops will be provided.
